Sheffield University - Not active in the Association this season

 

Because students come and go in a relatively short time it sometimes happens that virtually the whole university chess club leaves at once, causing discontinuity in the university's participation in S&DCA activities.  To help minimise the weakening of links between the Association and the university, the Association appointed for the first time in 2002 a University Chess Liaison Officer, Paul Cumbers.
